lyrics

Shy little boy Afrose, your silence leads me to the dream in your mind
Beautiful silks and wilderness of the lake, cheer the new born day

Wish I could shine the sun towards you, so you can read your book
Wish I could reach the sky very high, to write the words "I love you"

Afrose, how your brown eyes bring me the strength of almond trees?
Afrose, your brown eyes bring me the warmth of moonbeams?

These ordinary days you feel like a canary in a cage
Afrose, till the day you can fly away
Believe in the promise of today
Afrose, how your brown eyes bring me the strength of almond trees?
Afrose, your brown eyes bring me the warmth of moonbeams?

These ordinary days you feel like a canary in a cage
Afrose, till the day you can fly away
Believe in the promise of today
